Volunteering isn't just good for the community. It's good for you, too.

Whether you can spare a few hours a week or just want to give back when you can, volunteering with us is a chance to connect with others, build confidence, and make a real difference in the lives of older people. From our shops and befriending to community centres and customer services, there’s a place for everyone. Join us and help make East Sussex a kinder, more connected place to grow older.

Your support helps us offer expert advice, emotional support, and a friendly voice when it’s needed most.

Even a small gift can make a big difference.
